Default RE: AMA and Disabilities

Africanmike,

You asked for precedent. I gave you precedent. This is not considered discrimination.


CDignition,

No, a pacemaker and a defibrillator are indeed two different devices. A FAA medical may be attained with one and not the other. If the man only had a pacemaker and he was not allowed to fly, then this would indeed be UNPRECEDENTED and probably illegal.
